Arts ArchiveWelcome to the Arts Archive website - a searchable directory of performing arts listings going back to the mid-1990s. These listings are the archival content from websites such as UK Theatre Web, SeatChoice and TicketsToSee. Once a performance run is complete the information can not nornmally be found on those sites as they deal with current and future events - instead you can find the details here. We are delighted to be working with the Theatre Museum to incorporate thse listings into the proposed national performing arts database.
- VIEW BY WORK
- Drill down by genre then show. Note that most dance events are listed under their company name.
- VIEW BY VENUE
- Drill down by County, Town and Venue. Note that we often provide a place/venue called "General" in which we include performances taking place at locations not normally considered a venue by the system.
